These days programs and films seem to be propped up by sex or violence that is excessive and not crucial to the storyline. As soon as I read 'strong language' or 'excessive violence' I turn away. 'Forever' has a strong story line and an amazing lead actor - like Downton Abbey and most of the great films it does not need these props and can easily carry itself.
We finish an episode feeling refreshed and happy instead of fearful and wrung out. An excellent therapy.
When this drama says violence it is only as you would see to make the theme for the episode and not gratuitous or gory.
I highly recommend it.
